This provider’s futuristic website is in Russian.
Features and Ease of Use
Unlimits Telecom sells a good selection of hosting solutions, including web hosting, VPS, VDS (OpenVZ and Xen), SEO hosting, and reseller plans. The core web hosting features are:
- Unlimited traffic
- cPanel, DirectAdmin, and ISPmanager control panels
- Weekly backups
- PHP 5 and MySQL 5
- Free domain
The three web hosting plans (H-1, H-3, H-5, and H-10) vary in disk space from 1,000 MB to 10,000 MB, which could be limiting if you’re running a large business or multiple websites with heavy traffic. Therefore, Unlimits Telecom’s simple hosting packages might be a better choice for beginners, bloggers, and businesses with small websites that will also benefit from the website builder.
You can manage your hosting using one of three control panels: cPanel, DirectAdmin, and ISPmanager. The included Softaculous installer provides several scripts for CMS and other apps such as WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, Mambo, Zikula, SugarCRM, and osCommerce.
Unlimits Telecom’s Dell, HP, and Supermicro servers are situated in German, Russian, and American data centers, and you can choose your server location when you sign up. The 99.8% uptime is slightly below the industry average.
Pricing and Support
Although it’s more expensive than many Russian hosting providers, Unlimits Telecom’s prices are still reasonable for the solid infrastructure, stable performance, and feature set you get. You also get a free .ru domain if you pay quarterly for the H-10 plan or semi-annually for H-3 or H-5 package. That’s not all since Unlimits Telecom offers free site migration and one month free on any tariff.
I was told by support that a two-week free trial is available to test the services, and I can also tell you that you have seven days to request a refund for a VPS.
For self-support, this host has a knowledge base, but it’s limited, hard-to-find, and in Russian. It’s social media accounts are hardly ever updated. For one-to-one support, you can contact the company by telephone, ticket, or email. My test ticket received an adequate response within an hour:
